How to keep your eyelashes strong and healthy!

The eyes are the windows to the soul…which makes your eyelashes the curtains! When the curtains are cared for and bountiful, it makes the windows all the more alluring. When eyelashes play such an important role in enhancing the natural beauty of your eyes and ultimately your face, it’s a wonder that we don’t take better care of them. 

One of the biggest pitfalls when it comes to our eyelashes is the lack of care when choosing the right mascara. Conventional mascaras, particularly long wearing formulas that are water resistant, are loaded with toxic ingredients that can cause your lashes to become weak and brittle. Natural mascaras are a great alternative to these toxic products. Not only are they free of toxic ingredients like parabens and sulfates, all natural mascaras contain ingredients that actually condition and nourish your lashes. One such product is the Vegan Good Lash+ Mascara by FitGlow Beauty which nourishes lashes with powerful botanical extracts and plant protein to promote lash health and growth. Another is The mascara by Lily Lolo which contains their signature blend of natural plant waxes and extracts to nourish and plump up lashes. Regular use of natural mascaras therefore keeps your lashes healthy and wholesome in the long run.

Another way to keep our lashes healthy is to ensure that makeup is cleaned off every night with particular care around the eye area. As oft repeated as this advice is, it is paramount to caring for your lashes. Leaving eye makeup on through the night can cause your lashes to become dry and brittle making them more prone to breaking. A product like the Makeup Removing Cleansing Oil by Caudalie® can work to not cleanse makeup but also deeply nourish the lashes. It contains castor and sweet almond oil both of which have nourishing fatty acids that help your lashes grow thicker and longer. These are combined with grape seed oil which is replete with antioxidants to restore and maintain healthy lashes.

Finally, conditioning lashes also helps maintain their health. Eyelashes are just like the hair on your head, they need to be conditioned and cared for regularly to grow healthy and strong. Using a serum like the Lash & Brow Enhancing Serum by Plume can promote the longevity and fullness of lash & brow follicles. Formulated with nourishing, repairing, and hydrating ingredients like aloe vera, castor oil, and vitamin E, it is a product that can take your lash care to the next level.
